Definitions
- the invention relates to an aquaculture net with a prolonged life time.
- Aquaculture nets or fish-farming nets are used to raise aquatic life such as fish.
- the aquaculture net keeps the aquatic life controlled and contained and protects the aquatic life inside the net against predators such as sharks and sea wolfs.
- the dimensions of such an aquaculture net are considerable.
- An example of a typical dimension is 30m x 30m x 15m, the last dimension being the depth of the net inside the water and the first two dimensions being the width and length of the net at the water surface.
- the net may be formed of a polymer wire or of a coated steel wire.
- a net made of galvanized steel wire and of the above-mentioned dimensions has a weight above 4 metric Tonnes.
- the aquaculture nets are usually of the chain-link fence type. This is a fence of steel wires woven into a diamond pattern. The meshes have a dimension that is smaller than the dimension of the fish contained in the nets. Each steel wire is preformed by bending so that it exhibits a wavy pattern with maxima and minima. The maxima of a steel wire interlock with the minima of a neighbouring wire to form the patterns of a series of diamonds.
- Aquaculture nets of the chain-link fence type have proven to be successful to control the aquatic life and to protect against predators.
- Aquaculture nets with galvanized steel wires offer an acceptable resistance against bio- fouling, i.e. against fouling material that may grow on the mesh structure.
- fouling material refer to fouling organisms such as barnacles, algae or molluscs, which may attach and grow to the wire material of the mesh structure. This fouling mechanism is so persistent that entire openings in the meshes may be filled blocking any introduction of fresh water or nutrition into the volume inside the mesh structure.
- the solution provided by the present invention is based on the following principle.
- an aquaculture net which is divided into at least two parts, a lower part and an upper part.
- the lower part has a density of weight that is lower than the density of weight of the upper part thus resulting in a difference in density of weight.
- the bottom or lower part of the net is defined as that part of the net deepest in the water; the top or upper part of the net is that part of the net closest to the water level.
- the difference in density of weight can be realized in various ways.
- the lower parts of the net may have openings which are greater than the openings in the upper parts of the net, although still being smaller than the dimensions of the fish.
- the lower parts of the net may have wires which have a smaller weight than the weight of the wires in the upper parts.
- the wire is lighter in weight due to a smaller diameter of the wire. As such an aquaculture net is provided wherein the diameter of said wires are smaller towards the bottom of the net than those at the top of the net.
- the aquaculture net may be a chain-link fence.
- the aquaculture net is preferably divided into sections having steel wires of lighter weight for sections arranged more towards the bottom of the net.
- the sections are preferably arranged horizontally, i.e. parallel to the water level.
- the aquaculture net comprises three parts. These parts are arranged horizontally. There is a lower part, an intermediate part and an upper part.
- the lower part has a density of weight that is lower than the density of weight of the intermediate part.
- the intermediate part has a density of weight that is lower than the density of weight of the upper part.
- the wires are steel wires.
- the steel wires usually have a wire diameter that is smaller than 3.0 mm.
- the lower part may have steel wires with a diameter smaller than 1.80 mm.
- the intermediate part may have steel wires with a diameter ranging from 1.70 mm to 2.0 mm.
- the upper part may have steel wires with a diameter greater than 1.90 mm.
- the parts or sections all have the same size or height.
- the parts may have a different size or height.
- the height of the lower parts may be greater than the height of the parts above, hereby reducing the weight of the lower parts.
- the height of the upper parts may be greater than that of the parts below it, hereby increasing the strength of the upper parts or their ability to carry more weight.
- the invention works for many embodiments by combining the diameter of the wire with the height of a part or section to define a weight per section.
- the aquaculture net according to the invention preferably has the shape of a square or rectangular box, but may also be shaped as a cone, as a sphere, or any other shape, comprising sections of different diameter of the wire and different height of the parts or sections.
- said aquaculture net has dimensions which are greater than 1 m x 1 m x 1 m (length x width x depth).
- Figure 1 and 2 each show an upper view of an installed aquaculture net
- Figure 3 shows a side view of an installed aquaculture net according to the present invention.
- Figure 4 shows a side view of a chain-link fence aquaculture net according to the present invention.
- the net can be made of a polymer, such as polyethylene, polyester or polyamide.
- the net is preferably made of a chain-link fence of metal wires, e.g. steel wires where the steel wires are provided with a corrosion- resistant coating and/or an antifouling coating.
- Other suited metal wires are made of copper alloy or titanium.
- Figure 1 illustrates a square embodiment of a raft 10 for an aquaculture net as described by the present invention.
- the raft 10 comprises various galvanized steel bars 22 supported by HDPE floating devices.
- a platform 24 is connected thereto. People can walk around on the platform 24.
- the aquaculture net can be directly connected to the steel bars 22 by means of ropes or wires.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a circular embodiment of a raft 20 for an aquaculture net as described by the present invention.
- a circular raft may be made from HDPE tubes connected to one another by means of brackets.
- a platform 24 is connected thereto.
- the aquaculture net can be suspended directly at the raft.
- the bottom of the aquaculture net may still have the shape of a rectangle or square whereby the upper side takes a form close to a circle (more precisely, the form of a polygon).
- FIG 3 illustrates a side view of an embodiment of an installed aquaculture net 30 according to the present invention.
- the floating support 10 is of the square type as illustrated in Figure 1.
- the aquaculture net 30 is connected to the tubes 22 by means wires or ropes (not shown).
- the net comprises three sections each having a wire of different diameter.
- the upper or top section 32 has a wire with a diameter of about 2.10 mm; the wire of the middle or intermediate section 34 has a diameter of about 1.80 mm; the wire of the lower or bottom section, deepest in the water, has a diameter of about 1.60 mm.
- the height of the three sections 32, 34 and 36 is the same.
- the various sections 32, 34, 36 can be connected to one another in various ways, e.g. means of a spiralling steel wire going through the side openings of the neighbouring sections, e.g. by means of a metal rope going through the side openings of the neighbouring sections or e.g. by means of pieces of binding wire.
- the various sections do not form separate parts but are part of one continuous woven chain link fence.
- Figure 4 shows an alternative embodiment of a side view of a chain-link fence aquaculture net according to the present invention.
- the aquaculture net is directly connected to the tubes 22.
- the first top wire 42 of the chain-link fence is made of the largest diameter to be able to carry most weight and to strengthen the attachment to the floating raft.
- the wires 42 and below have a smaller diameter.
- the wires 46 have a yet smaller diameter. This may be repeated for wires below such that they have a further smaller diameter than the wires above.
